I was thinking about getting a cali king as my first snake but recently saw a picture of an albino nelson milk snake and fell in love :)
What are these like compared to cali kings? Are they more skitish and would you recomend one for a first snake?
(I will be a first time snake owner but have handled snakes alot, so im not a complete beginer when it comes to handling)
Thanks  |

| Nelsons would be fine as a first snake, as for being the same temperament as the cali it is down to the individual snake but they are generally tame snakes. |

| The Nelson was one of my short list being a chilled milk but when I went to check out half a dozen or so milks and handled the Pueblan, she turned out to be the most relaxed (and, IMHO the most beautiful), so she was the one I went with. Try to handle a few and see which feels most chilled out |
1 Pueblan Milk Snake; 1 African Mantis; several of it's locust lunch mates; various Stick Insects); 1 Doberman; several cats; and 5 fish |
